Same issue with Yamaha wired HDMI passthrough. Sound popping and Roku needs to be reset every week now to resolve the issue. It continuously comes back. Replaced both the speaker and Roku once already. I’ve used Roku’s for over a decade and my patience is running out with this bug. It’s been over a year.

Update 13.0 still has popping issue

Jump to solution

Hello to all out there!!! This is to everyone who has posted about the speakers popping and I have posted about this numerous times as well and even with the 13.0 update its still a thing!!! Last November 2023 is when I started noticing this issue, and I keep my center, L,R, surrounds, and Sub at below levels of 22 as I am embarrassed of this issue so I try to keep them from levels of popping. We shouldnt have to feel like that or put up with worrying about sound levels to enjoy what is to be a “Surround Sound” system. Its not just one persons story of this as hundreds have complained about this same issue and nothing has been done. ANY other streaming or service offering something are quick to help, and offer updates or degrades to help their customers, BUT Roku just seems to not care!!! I cant return all of these items and I truly feel bad to sell someone speakers that work but Roku wont fix the bug to make them work correctly…Idk what else to do here!!! I thought the new 13.0 would fix it but NOPE…Who wants to buy my 5.1 Roku surround sound system??? 😅😅
